Street photography frenzy

Journal Entry: Sat Dec 1, 2007, 12:03 PM
Ok so...i was looking at my gallery, and then i was looking at the features of my journal and i was thinking "what the fuck am i doing wrong??". i mean seriously (i don't want to sound Emo-ish) but there is something about my current photographs that i really don't like. Where are the time when i used to take my compact Konika Minolta and run around shooting everything that captured my attention. I know it was by luck but sometimes the result was far from satisfying....i mean they were really good pictures, i liked them.

I've always said it, but it is time that i face: i am an intuitive photographer, i don't have any knowledge of theory, i shoot completely without thinking...and thats really what makes me feel perfect...:P.

So 3 days ago, i took my Nikon D80 (oooooh :worship:...:faint:) and i went downtown to were the protest about education was taking place. i walked out the station, i took a deep breath and then i found the first person that was lookng kind of interesting and i said

"Hello, i am doing a project of mine and i run around the city photographing people that are completely unknown to me and that i've never spoke to them before"

It was fucking fantaaaaastic. I continued doing so for about 2 freaking hours. I admit that it was difficult at the beginning but at the end of...the question practically came out on its own. If they said no...i just grined, said a very pleasant good morning and then walked away. It honestly made me really happy.

I will be posting my work 2 by 2 or three by three (there are not really that many of them :P).I hope that you are gonna like it guys!

Thank you very much :)
